The joint U.N.-African Union peacekeeping mission in Sudan's Darfur says an initial investigation has turned up no evidence of a claimed mass rape in a village there.

UNAMID said Monday that investigators spent several hours Sunday in the village of Tabit, located 45 kilometers (28 miles) southwest of El-Fasher, the capital of North Darfur. The Sudanese military previously denied the mission access to the village.
